Thyroid gland (Latin: glandula thyr (e) o idea; English: Thyroid gland is a very important gland in vertebrates and belongs to endocrine organ. In mammals, it is located under the thyroid cartilage of the neck and on both sides of the trachea. The thyroid gland of human body is shaped like a butterfly and a shield, hence its name. So, how to treat thyroid multiple nodules? Experts said: Many patients are afraid of thyroid nodules. In fact, multiple thyroid nodules are a kind of thyroid nodules and a common thyroid disease, especially for middle-aged women. Thyroid nodules are divided into benign and malignant, with benign nodules accounting for the vast majority and malignant nodules rare. However, after long-term delay in treatment, cases of benign to malignant occur from time to time, so it is very important to treat them as soon as possible. Clinically, there are many thyroid diseases, such as thyroid degeneration, inflammation, autoimmunity, tumors, etc., which can be manifested as nodules. Thyroid nodules can be single or multiple. The incidence of multiple nodules is higher than that of single nodules, but the incidence of thyroid cancer in single nodules is higher. Patients with multiple nodules can follow the following treatment principles: 1. Multiple nodules are generally benign. (1) Patients with normal or decreased thyroid function can be treated with low-dose thyroid hormone first. If the nodule is obvious and the thyroid function is unstable after treatment, TCM targeted adjustment therapy can be used to treat it, and it usually recovers after about three courses of treatment. (2) Toxic thyroid nodules. After hyperthyroidism is controlled, it can be treated by targeted conditioning of traditional Chinese medicine, and malignant nodules can only be treated by surgery. 2. For a single nodule, the malignant probability of hot nodule is large, and the malignant probability of cold nodule is small. (1) Heat nodules: Hyperthyroidism patients can be treated by targeted regulation therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, and malignant heat nodules can be treated by surgery. (2) Cold nodules: ① Children or young men, especially those who have a history of neck radiotherapy or whose nodules are hard and inactive, can touch swollen lymph nodes in the neck, which can be cured by TCM targeted adjustment therapy below 4 cm, and should be treated directly by surgery above 4 cm; (2) The newly emerging nodules grow rapidly, and should be treated with targeted control of traditional Chinese medicine below 4 cm, and surgery should be considered above 4 cm.
